Passion of Darkness
Author's Note: Hello, its DestinyKitsune once more from the bowels of hell! You may remember me from my first story Shadows of Love, a FAKE flick in which the bottom fell out completely. Certain tragic incidents led to the discontinuation of this story. Though, if my readers desire another chapter, I still have a few more I can upload for you and on special requests I can send the yaoi files that I never placed. Any who… sit back, get comfy, and enjoy Passion of Darkness, something I do plan on finishing.
Prologue
"Tonight…" Sora softly whispered to himself as he gazed out over the ocean. His mind was clear, nearly translucent if it were tangible. He felt nothing except the cool darkness pooling within him, streaming through his veins and replacing the once red blood that had filled them. Vague memories surface in his consciousness. Riku and Kairi holding hands, the two engaged in playful kissing, the gentle teases they gave each other, the love they shared at night.
"There's nothing left for me now…" The words spilled forth from his tongue almost mechanically, a false smile upon his lips and the empty darkness filling his very eyes. He could here them in his head, voices whispering instructions to his soul, his mind, his heart. They corrupted him, made him feel nothing when all he felt was pain. Oh how he longed for the deep void of apathy that encased him and he now had it.
"Sora? What are you doing here?" Both Riku and Kairi stood behind him upon the bridge that separated Destiny Island from the smaller offspring of land, the earlier had spoken up to his best friend. Slowly, Sora turned upon his heel, his blue eyes staring deeply into his friend's own, the one he felt for; the one to shatter his heart.
"Tonight…" Sora once more whispered, though loud enough for the words to carry to the other's ears. Behind him, the sea churned becoming roiled and violent as the once clear and starry sky became clouded; sparks of lightning leaping between them to give off the only light amongst the three.
"Sora, what are you talking about?" Riku's words were lost upon him, he no longer heard his friend. All he heard was the sounds of the voices, shouting at him now; instructions on what to do, where he needed to go, what must be done. A laugh came from his lips, cold, bitter, metallic like laugh void of all human emotion. The wind picked up, now becoming as irate as the sea as it tried it's best to bend the palm trees to their will. More memories surfaced in his mind. He saw the two of them embracing upon the beach, heard the words of love proclaimed from Kairi's mouth, and the words of love from Riku's that followed suit. Tears seemed to sting his eyes though he simply shrugged it off as particles of sand being blown into his eyes.
"Good-bye, Riku." His voice was hoarse as he said it, the last bit of depression and angst cast from him in those single words. Raising his hand he concentrated, the words in his mind becoming vivid as the voices continued to shout, now more in glee than in rushed anxiety. The sky and earth trembled beneath their feet as Kairi screamed, lightning arching from the skies and striking upon Sora's hand; only to bend around it and then arch outwards towards Riku. Neither had time to react as the full force of the spell struck him square in the chest, knocking him from his feet and implanting him into the side of the mountainous rock. Kairi rushed back towards Riku or, she could have been running to save her own skin. Either way Sora didn't know or care. Once more, lightning arched from the skies and leapt forth from his hand; slamming into her backside and giving her a place next to her beloved. Tears once more streamed from his cheeks as he saw the two now laid out upon the ground, motionless except for their shallow breathing.
"Good-bye, my love…" Sora brought his index and middle fingers up to his lips, placing a gentle kiss upon them and holding them out to the inert form of his former love. Darkness seemed to sweep the island, casting everyone in a dark shade save for Sora; whom was enveloped completely. As the clouds parted ways and the moon once more reigned in the heavens, peace returned. The only disturbance to this tranquil paradise was the two lovers lying near death upon the grassy rock, and the disappearance of one of their greatest friends.
